Maybe Because You Choked?

Vanity Fair on George Lucas on Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull:

Whatever, Lucas is convinced he won't please everyone. "I know the critics are going to hate it," he says. "They already hate it. So there's nothing we can do about that. They hate the idea that we're making another one. They've already made up their minds."

At least the legions of Indy geeks will be pleased, right?

"The fans are all upset," Lucas says. "They're always going to be upset. 'Why did he do it like this? And why didn't he do it like this?' They write their own movie, and then, if you don't do their movie, they get upset about it. So you just have to stand by for the bricks and the custard pies, because they're going to come flying your way."
